BarCamp Philly Huge Success

Submitted by Karl on November 8, 2008 - 11:22pm.

Kudos to the those that organized and attended BarCamp Philly at The University of the Arts. The event pulled together a terrific cross section of Philadelphians involved in technology and media.

Every session I attended had vigorous discussion in which I learned much, I loved meeting people I have been following on the Web for so long, but the last session was a real eye opener. In it we shared pointers with each other to the larger Philadelphia tech community. Speaking as someone who has been on the periphery, it was a delight to see how it has grown and prospered these past few years. Let me share those I copied from the whiteboard. Philadelphia is happening in media and technology. Click, converse, connect.

I know I missed a lot. Philadelphia New Media Hub has a great collection of links and events to get you involved.

Special shout out to JP Toto, Roz Duffy and The University of the Arts for making this happen.
